PLAYLIST COMMANDS:
The player protocol implements two different techniques for managing playlists. If the player responds to the

additional interface is provided allowing a control system to manage playlists locally.

NOTE: Existing media file and/or playlist names that include spaces must be enclosed with quotes: “pre show”.
The Player will respond with
OK or ERROR
ListAllPlaylists

The player responds with a list of Playlist commands as follows…
Playlist
Where identifies a playlist.
The list is terminated with an empty Playlist message.
Example:
Playlist “Pre-Show”
Playlist “Main-Show”
Playlist
AddPlaylist
Adds a clip identified by located in the media path identified by to the playlist identified by
. Use this command to add a new Playlist as well as to add clips to an existing Playlist.
The Player will respond with
OK or ERROR
NOTE: Existing media file and/or playlist names that include spaces must be enclosed with quotes: “pre show”.
Example:

the command.
